Most everyone who has ever built a PC, has dealt with Antec in some way or shape. Antec is the General Motors of the pc builder community. They make reliable, well-manufactured and affordable computer enclosures, power supplies, fans and more. In fact, my first PC build was housed in an Antec case with an Antec Power Supply. Now, Antec has decided to try their hand in the external hard drive enclosure market. Their first foray is the Antec MX-1 EC, which is released under their Veris line of products. The Veris line typically features stylish HTPC cases.
